The mind reels with everything that could be going on here if he passes his physical. 

Was this a total back channel black ops move between two teams? 

Did Bennett tell GB he was done after Rodgers went down?

Was GB ok with this and looking to clear cap space provided NE claimed him?  Who’s paying the dead cap? I mean really paying it? 

Why would GB let him just walk? What does that say about their internal belief about 2017? 

Did Aaron tell Mike it’s no loss? Mike legitimately didn’t seem to know what was going on. 

Crazy situation. The loser in all this will be Bennett if he passes his physical. But there are many, many questions.

And still. The best TE in GB the past 7 years BY FAR has been Richard Rodgers. And it’s not really close. 

 

 

I couldn't have said it better myself. My head is swimming right now.

As for the rest of the team, I don't think that anybody has "quit". I would like to think that the men on the Packers are too proud as professionals to just give up. But are they going at 100% since Aaron went down? Clearly, no, and our defense, especially, is not good enough to go at 90%. Injuries aside, that unit needs to be playing at full speed, running hard and tackling. A 10% drop in effort would be disastrous. 

Right now, the Packers just need to win a game. They need to beat Chicago in the worst way.
